Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of platinum resistance temperature sensor technology, specifically a high-sealing platinum resistance temperature sensor. Background Technology
[0002] A platinum resistance temperature sensor (RTD) is a sensor that measures temperature by utilizing the property that platinum resistance changes with temperature. Its core component is a platinum wire or a platinum film. Common models are Pt100 and Pt1000, which indicate a resistance of 100 ohms and 1000 ohms at 0°C, respectively.
[0003] However, existing platinum resistance temperature sensors have some shortcomings in terms of sealing and installation stability. First, traditional sealing structures typically use a single rubber ring or gasket for sealing. This structure often fails to achieve a uniform sealing effect when the contact surface is uneven or has tiny gaps, which can easily lead to leakage or external contaminants entering the sensor, affecting measurement accuracy and the sensor's lifespan. Second, existing installation methods mostly rely on bolt fixing, but in high-temperature or vibration environments, bolts are prone to loosening due to thermal expansion or vibration, resulting in unstable sensor installation and consequently affecting the accuracy and reliability of measurements.
[0004] Therefore, we propose a high-sealing platinum resistance temperature sensor. Utility Model Content
[0005] (a) Technical problems to be solved
[0006] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a high-sealing platinum resistance temperature sensor. By improving the sealing structure and adding a pre-tightening component, this invention can effectively improve the sealing performance of the sensor and provide continuous pre-tightening force during installation, preventing bolts from loosening due to thermal expansion or vibration. This ensures the stability and reliability of the sensor under various environments and effectively solves the problems in the background technology.
[0007] (II) Technical Solution
[0008] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: a high-sealing platinum resistance temperature sensor, comprising a junction box, an extension tube fixedly installed on the lower outer surface of the junction box, a protective tube fixedly installed on the lower outer surface of the extension tube, a flange fixedly installed on the lower outer wall of the junction box, a mounting hole opened on the upper outer surface of the flange, a pre-tightening force assembly provided on the upper part of the mounting hole, the pre-tightening force assembly comprising an annular mounting groove, a compression spring and a ring body, an annular limiting groove opened on the lower outer surface of the flange, a rubber ring installed on the lower part of the annular limiting groove, a protrusion provided on the lower outer surface of the rubber ring, and a bolt passing through the mounting hole.
[0009] Preferably, the outer wall of the upper part of the rubber ring is inserted into the annular limiting groove.
[0010] Preferably, the annular mounting groove is formed on the upper outer surface of the flange.

A protective tube 3 is fixedly installed on the lower outer surface of the extension tube 2. A flange 4 is fixedly installed on the lower outer wall of the junction box 1. A mounting hole 8 is opened on the upper outer surface of the flange 4. A pre-tightening component 5 is provided on the upper part of the mounting hole 8. The pre-tightening component 5 includes an annular mounting groove 11, a compression spring 12, and a ring 13. An annular limiting groove 9 is opened on the lower outer surface of the flange 4. A rubber ring 7 is installed on the lower part of the annular limiting groove 9. A protrusion 10 is provided on the lower outer surface of the rubber ring 7. A bolt 6 passes through the mounting hole 8.
[0026] The upper outer wall of the rubber ring 7 is inserted into the annular limiting groove 9; the annular mounting groove 11 is opened on the upper outer surface of the flange 4; the compression spring 12 is located in the annular mounting groove 11, the lower outer surface of the compression spring 12 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the annular mounting groove 11, and the upper outer surface of the compression spring 12 is fixedly connected to the lower outer surface of the ring body 13; the outer wall of the ring body 13 is slidably connected to the annular mounting groove 11, and the lower outer surface of the ring body 13 is elastically connected to the bottom of the annular mounting groove 11 through the compression spring 12; the bolt 6 passes through the preload assembly 5.
[0027] It should be noted that this utility model is a high-sealing platinum resistance temperature sensor. The junction box 1, extension tube 2, and protective tube 3 described in this document are all existing technologies and belong to the composition structure of a platinum resistance temperature sensor. These components are readily known to those skilled in the art and will not be elaborated further. The rubber ring 7 is provided, with its upper part confined in the annular limiting groove 9 to improve its stability. A protrusion 10 is provided on the lower outer surface of the rubber ring 7, which increases the local pressure between the rubber ring 7 and the contact surface, thus aiding in... To fill tiny gaps, multiple protrusions can better adapt to unevenness of the contact surface, ensuring a more uniform seal. Through the pre-tightening force component 5, when installing the bolt 6, the nut on the upper part of the bolt 6 squeezes the ring 13, squeezing the ring 13 into the annular mounting groove 11. The ring 13 squeezes the compression spring 12 in the annular mounting groove 11, so that the compression spring 12 always has a restoring force after installation, providing pre-tightening force after installation, preventing the bolt 6 from loosening due to thermal expansion or vibration, further improving safety and stability, thereby improving the sealing performance.
